Thailand’s SET Index closed at 1,284.81 points, decreased 15.66 points or 1.20%, with a trading value of THB 38.89 billion. The analyst stated that the Thai market retreated due to downside pressures from listed companies’ weaker-than-expected 3Q25 results, particularly from stocks related to domestic consumption such as CPALL and CPAXT.

The analyst expects the Thai market to move sideways tomorrow.
